Abstract

The paper is an attempt to read into the psychosomatic experiences of a marginalized indigenous community by reading and analysing the newly emerging works of literature in the area. The focus, here, is on the poetry of Sukirtharani who has come to the fore as a prominent figure in Tamil Dalit-Christian poetry and has sculpted a genre of “Body Poetry” in contemporary Tamil Literature. The interstice between desire, caste and the body is a territory which requires much critical enquiry and the paper tries to problematize the same.
